Business Review
—Female, Parent of College-Bound Daughter (Self-Defense Session)
"My instructors have helped me a lot. I no longer look at myself as weak, but as a person who cares about everyone. As I get stronger muscles, my mind is getting clearer. I have learned to respect my teachers and my family, not because I look stronger, but I feel stronger with my thoughts. My instructors taught us that "If you say you can, then you will!" Classes are fun and I've learned a lot on how to communicate with others, and that respect and honesty are very important parts of life." - age 12
